Van Der Graaf Generator playing 'Man-Erg' during their 2005 reunion tour, live at the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, Sunday 13th November 2005. I had to edit out a one-minute (approx.) instrumental section at around 6:53 to make it fit the ten-minute limit by YouTube. ============================== Lyrics for Man-Erg, a song about schizophrenia and madness: ============================== The killer lives inside me; yes, I can feel him move. Sometimes he's lightly sleeping in the quiet of his room; but then his eyes will rise and stare through mine, he'll speak my words and slice my mind inside. Yes, the killer lives. The angels live inside me, I can feel them smile; their presence strokes and soothes the tempest in my mind and their love can heal the wounds that I have wrought. They watch me as I go to fall; well, I know I shall be caught while the angels live. How can I be free? How can I get help? Am I really me? Am I someone else? But stalking in my cloisters hang the acolytes of gloom and Death's Head throws his cloak into the corner of my room and I am doomed. But laughing in my courtyard play the pranksters of my youth and solemn, waiting Old Man in the gables of the roof: he tells me truth. And I, too, live inside me and very often don't know who I am; I know I'm not a hero; well, I hope that I'm not damned. I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these, dictators, saviours, refugees in war and peace as long as Man lives... I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these: dictators, saviours, refugees. ============================== Please check out my other videos. Comments are welcomed.

I just matched up one of my favorite bands with one of my favorite directors. If you haven't seen Deep Red, there are some spoilers. This was done rather quickly, but enjoy it anyway!

Peter Hammill sings "Man-Erg" ... The Best Song Ever Writ ...... and this is the the best version of it I ever heard. Extraordinary live and solo version of the much-loved Van Der Graaf Generator classic. ================================ Man - Erg (LYRICS) The killer lives inside me; yes, I can feel him move. Sometimes he's lightly sleeping in the quiet of his room; but then his eyes will rise and stare through mine, he'll speak my words and slice my mind inside. Yes, the killer lives. The angels live inside me, I can feel them smile; their presence strokes and soothes the tempest in my mind and their love can heal the wounds that I have wrought. They watch me as I go to fall; well, I know I shall be caught while the angels live. How can I be free? How can I get help? Am I really me? Am I someone else? But stalking in my cloisters hang the acolytes of gloom and Death's Head throws his cloak into the corner of my room and I am doomed. But laughing in my courtyard play the pranksters of my youth and solemn, waiting Old Man in the gables of the roof: he tells me truth. And I, too, live inside me and very often don't know who I am; I know I'm not a hero well, I hope that I'm not damned. I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these, dictators, saviours, refugees in war and peace as long as Man lives... I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these: dictators, saviours, refugees. ============================== From the unofficial live and solo album "Skeletons of Songs". I compiled the video myself utilising footage mostly downloaded from YouTube, with some of my own added effects and filters. Comments are always welcomed. Please check out my other videos.

Van Der Graaf Generator - Man-Erg - Live @ Rosignano (LI) 29/3/2008 Part 1 Sorry for the video quality, but I had to film it without using the display to avoid disturbing other spectators. Lyrics: The killer lives inside me; yes, I can feel him move. Sometimes he's lightly sleeping in the quiet of his room; but then his eyes will rise and stare through mine, he'll speak my words and slice my mind inside. Yes, the killer lives. The angels live inside me, I can feel them smile; their presence strokes and soothes the tempest in my mind and their love can heal the wounds that I have wrought. They watch me as I go to fall; well, I know I shall be caught while the angels live. How can I be free? How can I get help? Am I really me? Am I someone else? But stalking in my cloisters hang the acolytes of gloom and Death's Head throws his cloak into the corner of my room and I am doomed. But laughing in my courtyard play the pranksters of my youth and solemn, waiting Old Man in the gables of the roof: he tells me truth. And I, too, live inside me and very often don't know who I am; I know I'm not a hero;well, I hope that I'm not damned. I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these, dictators, saviours, refugees in war and peace as long as Man lives... I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these: dictators, saviours, refugees.
